Mezcal Guava Cocktail

The Mezcal Guava recipe:

For the Mezcal Guava Cocktail we pour the mezcal, the guava juice, the lime juice, the sugar syrup and the St-Germain Elderflower liqueur in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Strain your Mezcal Guava drink into a glass. Decorate your cocktail with some mint leaves.

The Mezcal Guava drink contains 2 typical Mexican ingredients: guava juice and mezcal. That's why it's the cocktail of the day for May 5, when Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in Mexico. During the French-Mexican War General Ignacio Zaragoza defeats a French army attempting to capture Puebla de Los Angeles.
